Acts, Our History Book
вЂњвЂ¦The book is designed for the
enlightenment of Christians
generally concerning the historic
origins of Christianity. It is in truth
the first church history. It is in reality
the Acts of the Holy Spirit as wrought
through these men. It is an inspiring
narrationвЂ¦вЂќ (ISBE., Vol. 1, pg. 46.)

heritage of her history; so is the LordвЂ™s
church, in many instances. Instead of
attempting to become вЂњmodern,вЂќ we
must remain with the pure gospel as
exemplified and practiced in Acts.

you all the counsel of GodвЂќ (Acts 20:
27, vs. 28-32).
